We are blessed with microwave ovens and dishwashers, so is there a solution for easier cleanup?I follow a few rules of thumb that save me money when shopping.
4. Eat something before you go to the store. If you’re hungry when you shop, you’re more likely to purchase something on impulse that you might not ever eat. As for eating out, since COVID-19 and other contagious diseases have been spreading, we don’t eat at restaurants. However, we occasionally stop at Starbucks in the morning for a hot drink to take out, or at Rubios for dinner to take home, both places being in Ramona and not out of the way, so there’s no extra gas involved. I do miss eating at Souplantation when it was in Rancho Bernardo, but since these diseases have been among us, we wouldn’t eat there now.
I learned from the best, so I do something similar when I’m eating during this time of economic hardship.
